Based on quality of china products, I figure it would kill you within the first 12 months from toxic fumes from the toxin's they mix in with their plastic to get rid of it. Breath and die the Chinese way. Because Made in the USA is so much better! LOL! I would rather die supporting an american company than send my hard earned dollars overseas.

How about a reverse fine against NHTSA for being ignorant in doing their job from the begining back when this problem began. Talk about a bunch of Morons covering their Arses in trying to make sure they still have a chair at the table of I kiss yours if you kiss mine stupid politics.

Nice truck always appreciated the off road capabilities. Seems RAM is now including a fuel delivery surplus charge as that is one of the biggest delivery fees I have ever seen for an auto.

You know Fiat has a bigger version called the 500L.. Its on sale at the moment. Forgot about that turd too, yet the dealer web sites here do not list any. Seems a glut of 2 door 2013 is the majority inventory.

So 45,000 cars a year, not bad for an ugly little turd. I can see an Automatic growing another 5-10K cars a year, but color, redesigned center stack and the TFT display I do not see helping dealers sell that much more. The two dealers here in the greater seattle area both have over 200 each on the lot and still have some new 2012 models they are not heavily discounting to try and sell since they are sitting on a butt load of 2013's and now the 2014's are here. Fiat needs to get a bigger version and 4 door version going.

WOW, I know it can be done but that is freakin crazy.

Agree, I do not see anything in America going to the Chinese, Ford should go with Continental and truly let it be luxury unlike the damaged Lincoln. Maybe they will try to buy out MB, a reversal of what MB did to Chrysler.

Very excited to see what all they have to show us performance fans!

Modern day version would not need the training wheels, just build in the same gyro as the Segway

I highly doubt Toyota played any role in this... With the majority control, I am sure Toyota is affecting some of these decisions.

Good thinking but just wait and see, Woman have the right to change their mind and boy mine sure does often. Though lately with the focus on her education she has not done that much lately.

Very cool to hear about the Encore, way to go guys! Make Mothers Day extra special and get it for her!

We'll someone in Marketing got this wrong if the Hatchback made up 50% of sales and the US is #1 market focus. Course I suspect allot of this was Toyota over bearing approach to development blandness.

Interesting, this is going to be exciting. Hope they do the Adra right!

There are some documented cases here on the charger forums of people having problems with the electronic portion of their keys not working, and it turned out to be a loose battery connection on the PC board of the transponder. There is an easy fix for this, It involves removing the battery, re-soldering the loose connection, and re-installing the battery. I have also read that this could be caused by a faulty fuse and they recommend pulling the fuse and replacing it for the push button start system. Weird part is that in reviewing the charger forum, many people talk about TSB's for this issue that fix's it and no one seems to post what it is. Bummer I just found where someone posted the following about their 2011 charger, "10575 intermittent/short range of fobik 08804401 replaced and reprogrammed both fobiks" Seems 2011 had a ton of problems and Dodge was replacing them before changing to a new supplier. You can also order new on Ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/390348788535 Hope this helps, COOL, just found this posted by Chrysler care on the Charger Forum. NUMBER: 08-024-11 REV.

I wish all auto makers would build robust wireless start systems. My daughters 99 Durango that I borrow to go skiing has a viper system I put in it way back when I bought it for her and I paid extra to have the long distance remote start which viper says can start up to a Mile away and it does work awesome. I can be at the top of 7th Heaven ready to make my final run down the 2 mile ski run and by the time I get to the auto it is nice and warmed up.

Hate to say it as the guy on the board who loves Japanese cars...but euro cars have so much more soul than Asian cars, mostly. I personally would not only agree with you but have to throw the Euro and American cars into this bucket. There is very little that has passion built into the car DNA right now. Everyone seems to be going to Jelly bean designs. While there are American distinct models that do have a flare, no one single brand really is cutting a passion DNA other than Cadillac with their car design. Now trucks and SUV's is a different matter, I just hope that some way the industry can hold off the morons in DC that want to socialize everything and make it all bland equal for everyone. That does not work!

Very cool, I love it.

But I bet it did not take as long for you to fuel as it took for them to charge.

COOL NEWS, I hope they bring the Adam here to the US. That would rock especially if it is CNG version that they sell in Europe.

Thinking on this, take the 4x4 capabilities of the Hummer and this innovative design and build a GMC special purpose, limited production run on an awesome 4x4 like this. It even had good areodynamics. I would love to own one.

Nice read, I find it interesting that we have come to products like this that people would use compared to just learning how to properly parallel park so that they do not mark up their rims. I know I am OCD about my auto and yet I see people all the time grind against the curb and wonder just how hard is it to use your side mirrow an park properly.

I get the feeling that this car company is on life support to just let the current ceo retire in a few years and then it will go away.
